Map of the UK

Cliffe is a small civil parish and village in North Yorkshire, England, set in the low-lying agricultural landscape typical of the area. The parish is predominantly rural, with fields, hedgerows and a scattering of traditional farm buildings that underline its farming heritage and give the place a quietly unhurried character.

Historically rooted in agriculture, the local economy and social life still revolve around farms, a village community and links to nearby market towns such as Selby and York, where many residents go for services and work. The settlement retains a sense of local identity through village events, historic cottages and lanes, making it representative of small-scale North Yorkshire rural life rather than a centre of tourism or industry.
